Barbados - New Hilton opening May 2001..need info..
I noticed on the hhonors website, that a new Hilton (luxury) is opening at Needham's point in west Barbados near Bridgetown. I can't book it yet (until May 31) but I'd like to know if:
a) is it brand new? (or remodeled existing hotel?)
b) How does Barbados compare to Maui?
Forgive my naive questions but I'm comparing using 30 k AA miles to get to Barbados from CA vs. 35 k AA miles to get to Maui. I'm wondering what my family would think of Barbados compared to Maui. We're not world travelers really (not sure about food over there etc.)
Any info would be appreciated.
I'm hoping to use 150 k hh points for the 6 night stay.
All advice and info appreciated...
Thanks..T Q
